Shows that passed you by

[Easytigers]

Just heard the theme tune to 'Twin Peaks' on the radio. I never watched the series but remember that my sister was infatuated with it (I can't even remember what it was about). It got me thinking, there must have been some absolute cracking TV series or films that just passed me by. I wondered if anyone else had the same (or listened to everyone else going on and on about a films/series but never really 'got it')...

My wife (rudely looking over my shoulder!) just mentioned that she's never watched Star Wars

Dr Who... seen it through having younger brother/sisters and now kids but never, ever got it through 10 iterations of the doctor and could never work out what was so scary about a glorified wheelie bin with a sink plunger for a gun, namely a 'Dalek'. For my kids now it's 'appointment TV'.

There are so many - tv is just not important enough in my life.

When the family want to watch X Factor or any of those things I go out on my bike / go play guitar / read / walk the dogs. I am actually grateful to Simon Cowell - for getting me away from the tv!

If it wasn't for the aforesaid family I don't think I would have a tv.

I haven't had a TV this century. Chucked it out on Christmas Day 2000, after sifting through every channel and not finding anything worth watching.
No great loss.

 

[numbnuts]

No TV

 

[Old jon]

No TV this century. Happy.

One that passed a lot of folk was Carnivale, which remains incomplete but is two series of brilliant story-telling and creativity.

Well worth a watch.

The Soprano's

That is a crime...

See what I did there?

I'm not a big TV watcher, but by golly The Sopranos was the very best thing that has ever been on TV as far as I am concerned.

I was lent the first series a while back and watched it, wasn't impressed.

Now Lost on the other hand...
